Ramsdale, Hojbjerg... Spurs boss Mourinho draws up shopping list

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho is planning a busy summer market - and with the full backing of chairman Daniel Levy.

Whilst money is tight at Spurs, Levy will support his manager with limited funds during the transfer window to strengthen problem areas in his squad ahead of next season.

The Daily Mail says Spurs are keen on a move for Bournemouth's Aaron Ramsdale if the south coast club are relegated, while Watford's Ben Foster and Fulham's Marcus Bettinelli are also of interest.

Mourinho also wants a central midfielder, with the club increasingly confident of signing Southampton wantaway star Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

Everton have already had a £25million offer accepted for Hojbjerg accepted by the Saints, but it is the 24-year-old's preference to join Spurs.

Tottenham are also in the market for a central defender to replace Jan Vertonghen who looks likely to leave when his deal expires on Sunday.

South Korea international Kim Min-jae, who plays for for Chinese Super League side Beijing Guoan, is of big interest to Spurs.
